Sure, a case can be made forPeyton Manning being round one worthy, but it’s not surprising to see him fall to 2.01. LeSean McCoy, Jamaal Charles and Adrian Peterson are spot on in my book, and I can’t argue a bit with 1.04-1.12 (aside from pushingManning into that 1.09-1.12 range, which isn’t everyone’s cup of tea).

Charles and AP have been the top picks while McCoy has been the third pick almost everytime. I think the Sproles aquisition has him slotted a little lower. Megatron has been coming in at # 4 or # 5 with Forte usually going before him at # 4. Manning has been coming in late first round or early second. Dez has been coming in at # 6 or #7 every draft in the first round. James ---- Full time Ghostbuster!

I think T Williams going in the 9th to 10th rounds is a steal. He is primed for a big year. One tip in PPR Leagues. If you can get Graham, J Thomas or Gronk in the first three rounds, pull the trigger. If you can't--- wait on TE. In my best mock drafts this year where I could get one of those elite tight ends, I had my best lineups. If you go: RB- McCoy, Charles, AP- 1st round TE Thomas, Graham, Gronk- 2nd round Best receiver available 3rd round Best RB or Receiver 4th round. With this configuration, I have been doing well. If you do get Gronk, you will have to add TE insurance for him since we don't know if he will be playing opening day. I suggest getting H. Millier out of Pittsburgh who has a low ADP and should be a big weapon for Ben this season. Andrew Hawkins going in the late 13th to 15th round is a great value pick. He might have a big year in Brownie land now that we can stick a fork in Gordon. I mean, someone will have to catch the ball other than Cameron. Hawkins is a great sleeper pick in PPR. I've seen Eli Manning going in the 14th to 16th round. A Super Bowl Qb that everyone is afraid to draft playing against the softest pass defenses in the league in the NFC East. James ---- Full time Ghostbuster!
